There's a difference between can't and won't. Yes their operation in Phoenix is heavily mapped and fenced, that doesn't mean that their technology can't and hasn't driven in more improvised environment before, and I highly doubt the lumbar street example was mapped.

Videos recorded by the company will always be cherry picked by definition, since they would only post videos that show the technology in its optimal working state. And there's always a driver behind the wheel checking everything goes right.

The reason Waymo is operating the way it does is they realize that they need to be 120% cautious, as ONE accident is all it takes to throw all their work a decade behind, jst like one accident is all it took to completely kill Uber's self driving effort. So again, it's not that they need a fully mapped geofenced area, it's that they choose to use that for now.

Hell, Tesla themselves posted their first "A to B" video back in 2016, yet here we are 5 years later and from a high level, what they showed in that cherry picked video they posted isn't much different to an average viewer, but no one would claim that they haven't improved at all in the past 5 years.

This is basic anecdotal data vs real statistics. A video tells you nothing about where the technology is. Unless we can see real open data about miles driven and number of disengagements, there's no way to tell if Tesla is doing well or not. So far Waymo's numbers are an order of magnitude better than any competition.
Is there anything you enjoy doing that you could eventually be paid for? I would say that spending that morning time developing the skill that is fun for you could be a good use of your time.
i'm glad you've found it useful! makes me super happy to hear :)
Interesting that most of the mitigations are "move resource behind firewall." Kind of an indictment of the whole BeyondCorp idea - unless we really trust our 2FA to never have any access bypass issues like the initial access to the dev environment here. Speaking of that, I didn't see "fix bug allowing unauthenticated access to dev environment" listed as one of the mitigations, but maybe I glossed over it.
It just occurred to me, boats have been around way before 1492, and they would drift away by accident, just like in this case, more often than not.

Hence, folks from East Asia drifted away and landed on west coast of North America all the time, from time immemorial to 1492, and all of them were designated native/indigenous.

Conclusion: Asia to America migration didn't only happen through Bering/Beringia land bridge pre-10000 BC?

Question: Has there been any investigation of similarities between west coast indigenous languages and Asian languages, esp. Japanese?
Great idea! I used to be a competitive rower. When I was working at a gym during my studies I was actually talking with the managers of running some rowing classes (similar to spinning).

I think the main challenge with rowing machines (and the reason why we didn't do rowing classes), is that for beginners there is essentially only hard or off, i.e. it is difficult to adjust to different exhaustion levels. That leads to high frustration levels and is the reason why one rarely sees someone at the gym using the machines more than 5mins (and those that do are often former rowers).
So HIT is probably the right way to go.

The other challenge I is related to hardware. The reason why everyone is talking about the C2s is that pretty much every other machine is crap. The forces pulling on these machines are substantive and concept managed to make a machine that held up over time, unlike the others. So I hope you guys made those things sturdy enough.

All the best, I hope you succeed!
>> We don't target the hard core rower.

Your marketing material suggests that one of the strengths of the platform is that it allows one to compete against professional athletes and Olympians.

Which is it?
The problem is how to ensure that the same tools can't be used to spread misinformation. Like a photo of a 5 years old girl that lives at 10 miles of a 5G tower and dies of cancer. Or a photo of a 5 years old boy that got all the vaccines and now has autism.

It's easy to get one shocking photo of each of these cases, because girl get cancer in spite they are not nearby 5G towers and boys get autism in spite they are not vaccinated.

The difference is that using statistics you can show that cancer is not more usual in people that live 5G towers and autism is not more usual in people that is vaccinated.

Statistic and serious medical reporting can show the difference of information and misinformation. Shocking photos put them at the same level.

This is a terrible solution. Updating aliases takes a few seconds, you can even shorten this time by creating a simple script adding the new alias and updating the aliases db.
I think this is fairly logical. There will always be more things that you're "aware of, interested in" than you deeply "know and understand". This leads to more references than notes, and more unread books than read books in one's library.
I have a C2 and a Wahoo Kickr.

I think you are targeting the wrong market if you intend to build a machine.

As a cyclist, the market sweet spot to me is the ability to set a wattage on a rower and have the machine automatically adjust the resistance so that I can hit the correct wattage/hour.

On the bike, holding a steady cadence and having the machine adjust the resistance so I can hit whatever % of FTP I'm wanting is the killer feature the C2 is missing.

All the other comments referencing injuries/etc are reflective of the need to make an ERG that allows you to just say "do 25 strokes/min" and if you blow up or cant hold the pace, drop the target wattage. It's harder to hurt yourself if the machine is setting the difficulty based on your pace and putting some sane max limits in.
I'm not comfortable assuming the best intentions from a $1.2T company whose business model relies on tracking my behavior. They burned that bridge after the war-driving "Wi-Spy" scandal, which went on from 2007-2010. [0].

It's clear that Google sees a threat to their business model, and they'll use any PR-friendly language they can to convince people that they're addressing the user concerns. Just like they did in 2010, when they ascribed their willful malfeasance to a "rogue engineer" who they then put in charge of StreetView.

If I'm "reading too much into it" it's because we collectively haven't been reading enough into it for the past 15 or so years, and in that time our Overton window has shifted too far.

I had the same problem which is why I made an app called MindPalace (https://github.com/msipos/mind-palace)

It's a note app where every note has a repetition schedule. The schedule can be dynamic (growing-shrinking) or fixed.

For example, my diary entries repeat every 365 days so I enjoy reading what my diary entries/thoughts were a year (or 2, or 3) years ago.
A very interesting little story. I wasn't surprised when I saw that a movie about this had been made in the 80s.

This requires browser integration. What concerns me is this doesn't talk about how Google plans to track non-Chrome users. Because you know Google isn't going to just stop tracking the other 40% or so of web users.

The other big thing that concerns me about this is how it still allows for some of the worst abuses. They are still going to possess entirely too much information about people and will continue to sell advertising that takes advantages of that information.
That $40k price is just for the US. For the rest of the world prices are much lower, even in developed countries (the average EU car price is about $35k: https://www.statista.com/statistics/425095/eu-car-sales-aver...). And let's not get started with developing countries, where it's a lot more likely that the price is around $15k.

On top of that, a lot of people buy used cars. Even in the rich US, used car sales dwarf sales of new cars: https://www.statista.com/statistics/183713/value-of-us-passe...

And as cars are a quickly depreciating asset, used cars are much cheaper on average:

> In 2019, the average selling price of used vehicles came to around 21,000 U.S. dollars

https://www.statista.com/statistics/274928/used-vehicle-aver...

This is what EVs are fighting against. Not just against other new cars, but against used cars too.

Plus personally I've rarely convinced anyone to buy anything with TCO calculations. Maybe you've had more luck :-)

I think EVs are still a few years ago from real mass adoption. 2025 sounds a bit more realistic. I'd say that the second gen ones are the ones that will make it through (Tesla Model 3 2027 facelift, or whatever they'll call it, ID3/ID4 2028 facelift, etc.). Those will probably have access to well developed super charging networks and to 90-100k MWh batteries at a 25% lower price.
EU 'does not accept' UK decision on diplomats
It lets you write to files. Except that these are files that exist in a self contained virtual file system in the browser. You can do things like fs.writeFile() or fs.readFile() (like electron, but without needing a desktop app, but directly inside the browser), and push that entire file system to a remote git repository, or pull from one.
Shameless plug: I liked the idea of having physical controls to virtual environment so much I built a control panel for my computer.

> It’s not going to happen anytime soon in the US, but the thing that will win people over is a genuine common philosophy of some kind. We’ve spent the last 50 years doing a weird washed-out half- Christianity, and now half of us want the old Christianity back

“Christianity” isn’t a unifying philosophy; even more recently than 50 years ago, the most dedicated evangelical/fundamentalist Protestant Christians were campaigning against the single largest Christian denomination in the country (Catholicism) as vigorously as against non-Christians, and many of our key religious freedom rulings were a result of Christian or Christian-adjacent groups (Jehovah’s Witnesses figure particularly prominently here) resisting impositions by more dominant Christian groups. Kennedy got much the same kind of attacks for being an (actual) Catholic as were directed at Obama for being (supposedly) a Muslim.

And if the short history in America were not enough, look at the troubled history of Christian-Christian relations in Europe and the Near East.
Healthcare systems have basically been subjected to nonstop austerity since the 2008 Global Financial Crisis.

Not really. If you can overwrite the return address, and you have some time to plan out your payload in advance, you can write a program by “returning” into other bits of the program or its libraries.
I don't recall where I first heard this, but I think it's true:

The theme of CES for the past decade has been making products worse through software.
They are claiming damages, probably the bounty is much higher since a typical Android phone costs 200€ vs Apple's 1200€. Plus a lot of consumer protection legislation and precedents signal that high end products have to last longer.
Luck you. I checked here (https://wolt.com/en/discovery) and they still don't seem to deliver (Richardkiez). Maybe I need to check in the app?
I don't think there will be one, since they're doing a SPAC merger. They're not doing an IPO, but rather merging with an empty holding company that's already done one.
> activating the mic on bluetooth headsets [...] brings the audio bitrate down to a quality comparable to AM radio

This is actually an artifact of the BT profile used. It is the same for most bluetooth headsets (all I know), and the same for all operating systems I know. Usually most people don't realize because when they enable the mic they're listening to... well, other people (definitely not music) and human voice sounds quite good at these bitrates. Good operating systems will just pause the music when you switch to the headset profile so that you don't hear it heavily compressed (until you finish the call and disable the mic).

It won't matter which "BT version" your adapter is using. 2.0, 4.0, 4.2 or 5.0. The headset profiles have remained unchanged for decades.

There is something new in 5.x -- the "LE Audio" profiles -- but I know no headset using it yet. And then there's the myriad of propietary extensions. Most of them are snake oil; your mileage may vary. But then again when using proprietary extensions BT version does not really matter either.
> Possibly unpopular view: Encouraging religious participation would go a long way to help. Whether you believe or do not, religion helps align society away from purely individualistic pursuits and more towards a "corporate good".

How does that work out in 3rd world countries where there's high levels of religious membership and high levels of angry young men

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Importance_of_religion_by_coun...

"Is religion important in your daily life"

There seems to be a correlation between countries with corrupt/untrusted governments and high religious importance.

Compare the Corruption Perceptions Index 2019 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index] with importance of religion [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Importance_of_religion_by_coun...]

And you don't get an exact line, but there's certainly a trend there.

Those with high corruption and relatively low religion are ex Soviet/Commumist (Azerbajan, Ukraine, Russia, Vietnam, Bulgaria, Hungary, Belarus, Cuba have <50% religion and >50 corrupt)

There's always outliers, like Singapore (70% religious but only 15 corrupt / 85 notcorrupt), but there's a trend

Does this mean that you would have to return a box that was sent to you, empty? Presumably you can't keep it and reuse it for your own shipping needs (as I do with cardboard boxes).
If you see sketchy ads on a website that's not supposed to be sketchy. Its probably taboola or outbrain. They often use near NSFW images (sexual & gore) in their click baits. I remember a few years ago, they'd also install malware on your system to change the default search engine to a Google lookalike. There were numerous articles online on "how to remove taboola malware".

This company should be sued to death instead of going public. Our slow to catch up legislation is to blame.

Valgrind is good but it's a dynamic tool, so it won't catch anything you don't exercise. There are better options, but there are usually some extra barriers to using them.

Exactly our target. The competitive folks who are lacking HIIT workout options at home.. like you said especially with the pandemic. Thanks!
Very much so. I wrote a couple of simple "exploiters" for particular bad-patterns I saw, shortly after reading this piece:

https://steve.fi/security/exploits/

These days these things are less useful, but recreating known-exploits is still educational. Once you get buffer-overflows handled you can look for more exotic things, format-string attacks, and similar.
Anyone who removes the "you break it, you bought it" scenario by denying you access to production is actually doing you a huge favor.
Contrary to what might be the common understanding in SV, we've actually had cabs before we had Uber. They also involved total strangers driving us home from bars. We've also had people rent their private homes as lodging: that's how I vacationed with my parents in Eastern Europe in early 1990s. Even today, if you go to any town on Baltic Sea, you'll find plenty of "Rooms" signs (in local language) on private homes; many of them have been up for decades.

All of what Uber and Airbnb do, had most definitely existed before. What Uber and Airbnb brought was making it much more efficient, convenient and safe. Uber and Airbnb use some level of social trust, but they also provide extra trust on their own, which comes from the rating function they provide. Before Uber and Airbnb, if you had bad experience in a cab or a rented lodging, there was little recourse, and the service provides had little incentive to behave well. Now, they can easily get kicked off the platform after too many complaints.
> It’s not fair to write off all criticisms of the blockchain as privilege.

Not all of them. Just the ones that compares the current implementation with some untenable ideal or with the status quo in the developing countries. Saying "I can send one million dollars or 20 dollars easily to anyone without blockchain" is no different than a "Let them have cake" to someone in Argentina who would like to work as a freelancer with European customers. Saying "blockchain is never going to compete with Visa" is a big fuck you to the small business owner in Rio who needs some rotating capital to their shop and the bank is offering "competitive rates" of 2%/month.

> Pushing a world without them onto these disadvantaged folks.

It has very little to do with "disadvantaged folks" or "not having access to financial services". It has more to do with enabling whatever-you-can-call "middle class" to be able to protect their wealth and to do their business without being harassed by corrupt government officials, or having their savings inflated away by government that can not/will not manage their finances and even to enable them to make business with foreign entities without getting ripped off by abusive/unfair taxes.

> Intermediaries are a massive optimization and solve a ton of problems.

No argument there. But again, the problem is when people don't have intermediaries they can rely on. If you show me any non-blockchain alternative where people are free to choose if they want intermediaries or not, then I will gladly support it.

As everything in designing systems, there is no solution free of trade-offs. Forcing people to depend on institutions and to accept centralization is a clear trade-off between performance and robustness. Too much optimizing and not focus on robustness brings you to a system that is so inflexible that becomes dangerous. It works well until it doesn't. When it fails, it fails spectacularly.

Any single state is infinitely richer. Why doesn't it pay for the vaccines? Isn't it the purpose of government? Why are we paying so high taxes if our social policies are to be carried out by top 10 billionaires?
I think you're misinterpreting reports of stall-related incidents as being an engine stall, but the most common accidents are related to 'aerodynamic stall'. Engine stalls are virtually unheard-of.

Perhaps either way should require an endorsement. Gasoline is hard to fly... tank switching, carb heat, warm-up requirements, power output limitations, mixture at takeoff, mixture at altitude, thermal management in power reduction, weight of fuel in load calculations. In some models even CG due to fuel load. The list goes on and on. Electric ought to be much simpler to fly.
